Operation

1. When the PCM receives (1) a power supply request signal, it flows (2) electric current to the main relay coil.

2. When electric current flows to the coil, the contact point is attracted by the generated electromagnetic power and switches on (3).

3. When the contact point switches on, battery power is supplied (4) to the engine control-related parts.
